The Leuze ELC100T17-600 Safety Light Curtain, part number 72000106, delivers exceptional protection with a resolution of 17 mm and a protective field height of 300 mm, making it suitable for safeguarding hands and fingers near dangerous moving parts. It offers a stable operating range of 0.5 to 3 meters, ideal for compact machinery where space is limited but safety cannot be compromised.
Built with a rugged aluminum housing and diecast zinc end caps, this model is resistant to wear, dust, and light moisture with an IP65 rating. The integrated infrared LED (940 nm) emits a pulsed beam, with optical synchronization ensuring seamless communication between transmitter and receiver. It operates at a consistent 24 V DC (±20%) and consumes a maximum of 100 mA—a balance of safety and energy efficiency.
The device includes a PUR cable (300 mm) with a M12 4-pin male connector, simplifying plug-and-play connectivity for quick installation. Its compact design (34.7 mm x 615 mm x 39.3 mm) supports groove or bracket mounting, and the LED status indicators ensure easy troubleshooting. Trusted across industrial automation applications, the ELC100T17-600 stands out for its durability, compliance, and performance in safeguarding workers from injury during high-speed machine operation.

The Leuze ELC100T17-600 Safety Light Curtain is widely used in industries where precise finger protection is mandatory. It’s ideal for safeguarding pinch points in automated machinery such as pick-and-place systems, compact press machines, injection molding units, and assembly lines, where even a minor misstep could result in injury.
This model is especially useful in operations requiring high-speed access control and minimal interruption to workflows. Because it supports optical synchronization and a narrow beam resolution of 17 mm, the sensor effectively blocks unsafe access without the need for mechanical barriers—making it easier to maintain machine uptime while still complying with workplace safety norms.
Maintenance teams benefit from its intuitive LED display and quick-connect M12 interface, which makes fault detection and replacement fast and error-free. In Indian factories—where humidity, dust, and frequent power fluctuations are common—the ELC100T17-600 performs reliably thanks to its short-circuit and overvoltage protection features. Overall, this Leuze Safety Light Curtain is a trusted component for machine builders and engineers prioritizing safety, uptime, and compact integration.
